If the will has not been probated, as your comment states, you don't have a lot of resources. However, depending on how the will is worded and property therein, the will may not have to be probated. For example, your mother may have put assets in joint with another person, your brother possibly. He, or someone else may be a beneficiary to a life insurance policy. We can't really give you a definitive answer. How are your relations with your brother? You may have to go to court to force the issue.
